Coffee-making skills on offer to people with disabilities to boost job prospects

A NEW scheme will see people with disabilities and mental health needs trained up to make the perfect cappuccino.

North Yorkshire County Council is providing training in barista skills so people with disabilities can increase their opportunities in the jobs market.

Visitors, staff and people who live nearby County Hall in Northallerton can visit the Coffee Cart which will be in the grounds over the next few months. The cart is there to give people the chance to learn to make a range of fresh coffees and become qualified baristas.
